Ingredients:
1 large leek, chopped (white part only)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 large potato, chopped
2 cups vegetable or chicken stock

Method:

- Add broccoli, potatoes and stock and bring to the boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Transfer to high speed blender/thermy and process until completely smooth. Not suitable for nutribullets until completely cooled as there is no where for the steam to go, which will cause an explosion.
